All I have to say is shame on me for believing after the win vs Titans. After rooting for this team since '86 I should have known better. Doesn't matter how many players we buy...this coaching staff is a joke. I WANT BILL COWHER FOR DC- give me ANYONE on the Steelers Defensive coaching staff...anyone
When I look at Mangini's forlorn, exasperated mien at the end of games, I see a younger facsimile of Joe "the picker" Walton. The entire coaching staff needs to go. I was drinking the Kool-aid after the Tennessee win like many others on this board. But reality has shattered my illusions about this team. We don't deserve to make the playoffs. What was once a potential 13-3 season is now looking like another 8-8 collapse.
Dick LeBeau is in his 70s and wouldn't/cannot make a lateral move to the Jets, so forget him. Defensive line coach John Mitchell is also long in the tooth. Forget him. Linebackers coach Keith Butler is the best candidate. He's been with the Steelers since 2003 and is 52 years of age. I suppose he is in line to get a coordinator job soon.
Watching the Jets through history is like having sex and every time your about to finish your mom walks in.
Funny analogy, but you're not supposed to have sex in your mom's house. At least not when she's home.
This team really knows how to rip your heart out there the New York Mets of Football. I swear to god if the Dolphins and Pennington win the division I'm gonna drink a bottle of anti-freeze.
As much as I would like to think we can still win the division, I feel like there is now way we win the next 3 games
+1 And I'm embarrassed that I threw a tantrum in my wife's presence. She gets scared when the Jets lose. I need to get a grip on that...
I root for those losers, too. To make things even worse, I am a West Virginia fan when it comes to college football. They would have played in the national title game last year, but laid a colossal egg at home to a shit Pitt team with a losing record.
I screamed "You stupid Mother#$^%s!" when the flag showed up during Washington's run. It was just so frustrating to see that play come back. My fiance laughed, nervously, since I don't usually scream like a maniac.
^^^Post of the Day!!!^^^ I, too, drank the Kool-Aid after the Titans game. What I saw out there was a team of f-ups. No heart or guts in this team at all (except maybe Favre). No brains, either. Playoffs? HA! Two flat games in a row with the season on the line. Not good.
